        if prescribed by a psychiatrist, certainly - but I hear NPD is untreatable difficult, but treatable.

        his street coke aint working.

          Please be mindful of the misinformation here. NPD is nuanced and difficult to treat, as with any personality disorder, but it is absolutely possible.

      I was gonna say, he looks like he aged more this summer and fall than he did his entire presidency. And that’s incredible, 4 years in a super stressful job should age you a bit.

      What the hell is stressing him out so much that a few months he’s gone grey and leathery?

      When you’re entire purpose in life is to make others miserable, I imagine it’s difficult to remain content. At this point, I think other people are controlling him more than he’s converting himself, too.

      This guy is an angry meat puppet. Couldn’t happen to a worse person.

    Fentanyl-related offenses should receive the death penalty, but it’s completely fine to just sell opioids to millions of people for decades and possibly cause a societal meltdown in the process because that’s just being a smart businessman or something.

      Raped? Quite possibly. But raise? Not him, he paid others to do that for him. Trump wouldn’t soil HIS hands by actually raising his children.

      Can I continue to advocate for the vigilante killing of Musk and ilk? Because I am not better than that, its what my ancestors wouldve wanted actually my ancestors wouldve put him in a ditch for being stupid and English but thats besides the point.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
